Matthew 1

[1] The genealogy of JESUS CHRIST, son of David, son of
Abraham.

[2] Abraham begat Isaak, and Isaak begat Jacob, and Jacob
begat Judas and his brethren, [3] and Judas had Phares and
Zara by Thamar, and Phares begat Esrom, and Esrom begat
Aram, [4] and Aram begat Aminadab, and Aminadab begat
Naasson, and Naasson begat Salmon, [5] and Salmon had Boaz
by Rahab, and Boaz had Obed by Ruth, and Obed begat
Jesse, [6] and Jesse begat David the king, and David the king
had Solomon by her who had been the wife of Urias, [7] and Solomon
begat Roboam, and Roboam begat Abia, and Abia begat
Asa, [8] and Asa begat Josaphat, and Josaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Ozias, [9] and Ozias begat Jotham, and Jotham begat
Achaz,and Achaz begat Hezekias, [10] and Hezekias begat Manasses, and Manasses begat Amon, and Amon begat Josias, [11] and
Josias begat Jechonias and those brothers of his at the removal to
Babylon, [12] and after the removal to Babylon Jechonias begat Salathiel, and Salathiel begat Zorobabel, [13] and Zorobabel begat
Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor, [14] and
Azor begat Sadok, and Sadok begat Achim, and Achim begat
Eliud, [15] and Eliud begat Eliazar, and Eliazar begat Matthan,
and Matthan begat Jacob; [16] and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born JESUS who is called the
CHRIST: [17] all the generations therefore from Abraham to David
were fourteen generations, and from David to the removal to
Babylon there were fourteen generations, and from the removal to Babylon till the Christ fourteen generations, [18] and the
genealogy of Jesus Christ was thus; for his mother Mary having
been espoused to Joseph was, before they came together, found
to be with child by the holy Spirit, [19] and Joseph her husband,
being a just man and not willing to expose her, determined to
divorce her privately; [20] but while he was thinking of this, an angel
of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said to him, "Joseph, son of David, fear not to take home Mary thy wife;
for her pregnancy is from the Holy Spirit [21] and she will bear a
son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS, for he will save his
people from their sins. [22] All this was done, so that there was a
fulfilment of what was spoken by the prophet, saying, [23] "The
virgin shall conceive and bear a son and thou shalt call his name
Emmanuel," the meaning of which is, God with us: [24] so when
Joseph awoke from his sleep he did as the angel of the Lord
commanded him, and took home his wife, [25] but knew her not
until she brought forth this her son, THE FIRST BORN; and
he called his name Jesus.
